Reminiscing March

Julia Tapia April 2014

 

March is the month of green, be it National Irish Heritage month, Mardi Gras or Saint Patrick’s Day, we all need to spice up our March with a little green! To start the month off is Mardi Gras, on March 4th, a New Orleans tradition to have an elaborate parade and float competition. The festivities take place on the eve of Fat Tuesday or, otherwise known as the evening before Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent for Catholics. So, show off some Mardi Gras pride with some beads or even a masquerade mask, but just make sure it’s green, gold, or purple!...
